ABOUT US:

For over 20 years, we have been a beacon of hope, dedicated to recruiting, training, and empowering compassionate volunteers to serve as Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs). 

These incredible volunteers are the heart of the organization, devoting countless hours to supporting children in foster care, at-risk youth, and struggling families. 

CASAs act as a voice for the voiceless, ensuring that the unique needs of each child are heard and addressed. They guide children through the complexities of the justice system, gathering critical information and serving as the eyes and ears of the court. 

Through their advocacy, they strive to ensure every child finds a permanent, safe, and nurturing home where they can thrive. Our work is driven by a commitment to creating brighter futures for children and strengthening families in times of crisis.

Giving Activity

Mission

Our mission is to be the bridge between the most vulnerable in our community and volunteers who make a difference.

Needs

Right now, nearly 600 children and youth in our region are growing up in the child welfare system—surrounded by uncertainty, instability, and unfamiliar environments.

Every child deserves a steady, supportive adult who will show up and speak up for them.

That’s where we come in.

We train and match CASA volunteers with children who need them most. Your support helps ensure that no child goes through this experience alone.

Our goal is simple: for every child in foster care to have a CASA volunteer. But we need your help to make that a reality.

It costs $2,500 to recruit, train and support one CASA volunteer for a year—and we need $50,000 this year to ensure that every child who enters foster care has a dedicated advocate by their side.

Today, your impact goes even further. Thanks to the generosity of the Beth Frkovich Foundation, every dollar you give will be matched dollar for dollar—up to $10,000.
